An Abraxan is a breed of Winged horse. It is a gigantic, extremely powerful Palomino. Madame Olympe Maxime, Headmistress of Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, breeds them, and used them to pull her carriage is 1994. They drink only single malt whiskey and require forceful handling. In 1997 after the death of Albus Dumbledore the Abraxans returned to Hogwarts flying their powder-blue carriadge with them, in which Olympe Maxime was travelling in to attend the Funeral of Albus Dumbledore.
Their name is probably derived from Abraxas, one of the horses of Aurora, the Dawn, in Roman mythology.
